What it does
Matlab Analyze Spectrum is an agent skill from matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit. Analyze signal spectra in MATLAB using nonparametric and parametric estimators. Use when computing frequency content, PSD, power spectrum, spectral peaks, bandwidth, or streaming spectral analysis. Covers pspectrum, pwelch, periodogram, pmtm, pburg, pmusic, rootmusic, plomb, poctave, spectrumAnalyzer, dsp.SpectrumEstimator. TRIGGER: FFT, PSD, power spectrum, spectral analysis, frequency content, bandwidth measurement, spectral leakage, window selection, streaming spectrum, periodicity, resolve close frequencies…
Its SKILL.md is about 5.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 14 other files, including reference files (for example `manifest.yaml`, `references/estimator-comparison.md` and `references/manual-fft-psd.md`).
The repository describes itself as: The MATLAB Agentic Toolkit brings proven MATLAB capabilities to AI agents, making engineering and scientific workflows agent-ready.
When your agent uses it
- Computing frequency content
- Streaming spectral analysis
Example prompts
- “/matlab-analyze-spectrum”
Workflow steps
9 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Batch or streaming? -- Determine if data is already in workspace (batch) or arrives frame-by-frame (streaming). See below.
- Preliminary analysis -- When user provides data, run diagnostics to inform technique selection (see below)
- Pre-process -- Check for NaN/gaps (use plomb for non-uniform data). Apply detrend(x) only if DC/trend visibly distorts the spectrum
- Choose output type -- PSD, power spectrum, amplitude spectrum, or octave bands (see below)
- Choose estimator -- Use preliminary analysis results + Estimator Selection below
- Compute spectrum -- Use the chosen function with explicit Fs (if available)
- Visualize -- Plot with proper axis labels (Hz, dB or linear units)
- Extract metrics -- Use findpeaks, bandpower, obw, powerbw. See references/peak-detection.md
- Verify -- Parseval's theorem, known tone levels. See references/power-from-spectrum.md
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 69e71df. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are matlab).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Matlab Analyze Spectrum loads about 5.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~24k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 157 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,072 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,072 words (~5,476 tokens).
“Compute, visualize, and extract measurements from signal spectra using Signal Processing Toolbox. Choose the right spectral estimator, avoid common FFT pitfalls, and use built-in measurement functions instead of reinventing them.”
